.......

My colleague wept, with relief as he listened to Mrs. Clinton because it became plain that the Obama administration was not hoodwinked by the Nigerian government propaganda. No detail of the country's present demeaning, life-threatening disease is hidden from the US State Department. Little wonder then why Kenyan-born Barack Obama, America's first Black President, converted his major speech at his recent Ghana trip to a scathing upbraiding of Nigeria's irresponsible leadership! Clinton is implementing a tough-love state policy: to whip Nigeria's mulish leadership into line, and let verbal fact and finesse go to hell! The patient needs drastic therapy, and must endure it.

This is an excerpt of an article from a pro-Obama African writer who mentions O's "Kenyan-born" status just in passing, probably with no knowledge of its potential legal significance in the United States.

Original link didn't work, but this one did.

It appears to be a rewrite of the other one, or the other is a rewrite of this one. But it still contains the phrase "Kenyan-born Barack Obama, America's first Black President"

It seems the Africans take for granted what is being hidden from *us*.

They keep piling up. At least that continent seems to be convinced he is one of theirs. They can have him.

The “laugh” is on us. Literally.

Thanks for the link. Assume there will be a rewrite again with the offending sentence deleted.

Found yet ANOTHER article on that same site! This one is from February 2008, says Obama is Kenyan born!

That’s too many damn mistakes. Someone there knows something.

[mojitojoe]

Well I’m convinced he isn’t one of ours, so like you said, they can have him.

I don’t know what to believe?
